In the Circle of God’s Love, God’s Waiting to Use Your Full Potential
I was recently sorting through the books and papers in our den and came across a message that had been shared at one of my society’s LWMLC meetings years ago. I couldn’t find the author but thought the message was a good one to share.
- God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts!
- Dear God, I have a problem, it’s me!
- Growing old is inevitable…growing UP is optional.
- There is no key to happiness. The door is always open.
- Silence is often misinterpreted but never misquoted.
- Do the math…count your blessings.
- Faith is the ability not to panic.
- Laugh every day, it’s like inner jogging.
- If you worry, you don’t pray. If you pray, don’t worry.
- As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling home every day.
- Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be bent out of shape.
- The most important things in your house are the people.
- When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.
- A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.
- He who dies with the most toys is still dead.
”God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change…the courage to change the one I can…and the wisdom to know it’s me.”
